Strikeforce St. Louis Dec. 4th

[SPX]

What the fuck? Did they just announce Werdum as the HW champ?

[Luke]

. Why not put some contender fights on, too?

Got me . I'd be all for it though

[edman5555]

I think Robbie, Hendo, Semtex and Silva are going to win.

What the fuck? Did they just announce Werdum as the HW champ?

what are you talking about?

[SPX]

what are you talking about?

The weigh-ins. . .

What the fuck? Did they just announce Werdum as the HW champ?

I heard them announce him but I didnt hear that.

[Luke]

Jesus bigfoot outweighs Klye by 44 pounds

[Luke]

What the fuck? Did they just announce Werdum as the HW champ?

You are right .I just saw someone else say the samething.

Showtime doesnt even know who their champ is

[SPX]

^^^ Ha ha, yeah, I was like What the fuck?

Maybe it was a subconscious thing. Like, whoever beats Fedor is obviously the REAL champ.

[SPX]

SF weigh-ins have no energy to them. They need to get some music or . . . something. Shit was just dead.

[Luke]

Did anyonee else realize Bones Jones was on this card ?

Hendo looks much better at 205 .I bet Scott Smith had a hard time making 170 because he looked drained to me

I will probably bet Jon Jones tonight. He has a 79" reach, and is a pretty big LHW. He handled Britt pretty well two weeks ago. They both got this fight on 10 days notice. Radach hasn't fought since April 2009 where he got KOd by Scott Smith. Radach is a middleweight and is fighting this fight @ LHW. He is coming off of staph infection DUE to a pec tear that he had surgery on shortly before. Radach stated in the pre fight conference that he has been focusing on work lately and not training when he got the call, Jon Jones just fought a couple weeks ago.

Oh and for the idiots, Jon Jones= Ovince St. Preux

[MMA_scientist]

^^ certainly sounds good.

I also like Lawler to win, but not @-185.

I am almost tempted to take Silva @-345 as well, he will have a 50 lb weight advantage in this fight, Mike Kyle has lost 7 times in his career, and 5 of those losses came from heavyweights. The HWs he has beaten are James Irvin and an old 225 lb Tsuyoshi Kohsaka that is 26-18. I just don't see Kyle having anything for Silva. Silva will have the size advantage, advantage in the striking, and on the ground.

oh and:

"But like I said, I bring a better fight than all of his opponents. I'm better than Arlovski. I'm quicker. I have better boxing. I have a way better boxing game, way better footwork.

I don't think he's going to be able to keep up with me. There's a quote, "speed kills," and I'm really going to try to push that. Use my speed and my good foot movement. ... Hope we get a later-round knockout.

Why would I force him on the ground? I would really like to use my stand-up. I have really good footwork that'll make it hard for him to hit."

-Mike Kyle

[MMA_scientist]

Silva should win that easy. But Kyle does have big power. Silva said he wants to stand with him for some reason though. If Bigfoot takes him down, he will have his way with him IMO.

[poopoo333]

Babalu's movement looked good against Lawler, if he could do something similar to Hendo I think he can pull off a decision if he gets some TDs. Hendo's walk forward style looking for a power right hand might be able to get neutralized tonight.

[MMA_scientist]

I am afraid Babalu is going to return to form and just out grapple him. Babalu is a terror on the mat for about 3 minutes.
